Hi
This is a guide to ROOT, backup and flash your MTK65xx or Other device (Supported devices: http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/framaroot/framaroot-supported-devices-t2722980 all credits to alephzain) written by s7yler.
More guides & reviews on my Youtubechannel http://www.Youtube.com/s7yler and http://s7yler.blogspot.com
(Tools used are Framaroot, MTKDroidtools/CWM and SpflashTool)
I will try to write this guide in step by step, so everyone can understand it. This is for PC and will work with Windows 7.
-> All is done by your own risk! this is just a guide to help people with the tools and process. <-
How to ROOT the phone first
1. Get the latest Framaroot apk here http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/framaroot/root-framaroot-one-click-apk-to-root-t2130276
2. Download it and install it on the phone, open the Framaroot app on the phone.
3. Let it be on Install SuperSU, and try the last method, if that dont work, then try one of the 2 others.
4. Then it should say success root, and now reboot the phone.
5. After reboot the phone should be ROOTED, download root checker from the Play store and verify that your rooted.
How to make a simple backup (not completly 1:1) of your stock ROM / MTK phone
1. You have you brand new MTK phone.
2. What I do first is to install all possible drivers. So you go to your PC and install these apps/drivers:
Snappea - http://www.snappea.com/windows
Pdanet drivers - http://pdanet.co/a/ (When it ask what device you have in the install process, just say "Other")
Mediatek Preloader USB VCOM Drivers - (Install file) http://www.mediafire.com/download/cypm22rgs2k83ji/MT6577+USB+VCOM+drivers.rar and here the raw drivers http://www.magicdriver.com/driver4214-ver_1.1123.0.html
For the Preloader VCOM drivers for Windows 8 please read here, and follow this:
http://thebroodle.com/android/install-mediatek-mt65xx-usb-vcom-drivers-windows-8-8-1/
3. On your MTK phone you must in "Developer Options" enable "USB debugging mode".
4. Now download MTK Droid Tools here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49597819&postcount=922
5. Start MTK Droid Tools, and connect your phone with the USB cable to the PC. (if Windows install some drivers, then let it install them automatically).
6. Now on the first page of MTK Droid Tools, it should display all infos about the phone when you connect it.
7. If the sqare is Green, then you have root shell and ready, if its not green, press the ROOT button to the right in MTK Droid tools.
8. Click the "IMEI/NVRAM" button and then Backup to backup your IMEI/NVRAM, the backup files will be inside of the MTK Droid Tools folder.
Also you can manually write down your IMEI number just in case it should be lost.
9. Now go to the tap "root, backup, recovery" (in MTK Droid Tools).
10. Click the Backup button, and it will create a complete backup of your ROM. (in the end it will ask, if you want to pack it, just answer no)
11. When it is finished then also click "To prepare blocks for FlashTool", that will convert the backup to be compatible with Spflashtool. (choose the files.md5 inside the backup folder)
12. After the backup is done it will be inside "backup" in the MTK Droid Tools folder. And inside it there will also be a new folder called "!Files_to_FlashTool" Inside there the files for Spflashtool is. So when loading your backup with Spflashtool you must load the scatter file from inside there.
13. Now to install CWM (clockworkmod recovery) In MTK Droidtools, choose "To use boot from phone" and click the "Recovery and Boot" button. It will ask you a lot, just say yes every time, and it will end of sending CWM recovery to the phone and reboot into it on the phone. After you see CWM on the phone you know it is done. You can switch the menu with the volume keys, and the power is the select button.
14. Inside CWM you can also do a complete backup of your phone (remember to have enough space, you can do the backup to the internal storage OR to the SDcard - try "backup" if that fails then choose instead "backup to external sd" or vice versa). I recommed doing that because CWM makes another backup than the one made with MTK Droid Tools. So if you should get problems or loose something, you can always run your CWM backup into your phone and it will be as before.
15. After your done the backup, copy the backup also to a safe place on your PC. Just in case!
16. So now your Rooted, have installed CWM recovery, have a IMEI/NVRAM backup and a backup for Spflash Tools plus CWM backup.
To make a 100% FULL 1:1 (more advanced) ReadBack ROM backup using SP FlashTool please check these guides here, and learn how to:

To flash a backup or ROM with Spflashtool:
Disclaimer: Don't flash another preloader and DSP_BL blocks! It is always dangerous! On some models of phones you will have a brick even if you download these blocks read from phone which you own! Always remove from them marks in SPFT! ALWAYS have a working backup of your original ROM before you flash a new unknown ROM. I take no responsibility for any harm done while attempting this!
1. Go download Spflash tool here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982576
Both version 3 or 5 should be good to use. If your having problems with one of them or they crash, try this newer version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2650125
2. Disconnect your phone if connected with USB to the PC, and turn OFF the phone completely, also take out the battery if possible (but can also work with the battery inside the phone, for phones with builtin battery).
2. When you now again connect the USB cable to the phone with the PC while the phone is still off, Windows should popup and beginn to install the MTK65XX Preloader Drivers, this only happens if you installed the Mediatek Preloader USB VCOM Drivers correct in Windows. After they successfully installed, disconnect the USB cable again.
2. Start Flash_tool.exe to start the program
3. Now hit the "Scatter-loading" button, and go to the backup or ROM, inside the folder "!Flash files Spflashtool" load the scatter.txt file. (ALWAYS only load a ROM that is 100% made for your phone, flashing a wrong ROM may make your phone non-bootable)
4. When the scatter file is loaded, it will show all the content in the Spflashtool window.
5. If you only need for example to flash the EBR files, you can deselect all the others. But remember that it must be same ROM or backup.
6. Hit the "Download" button in Spflashtool. Then there should be some pink lines with colors showing that it loads the files.
7. When it stopps to flash/load, connect your phone with the USB cable, remember the phone must be OFF (and without the battery inside if possible to remove). If nothing happens then maybe it is necessary to press at the same time with connect of a cable the camera or volume buttons. For example, hold the volume up button down, insert the USB cable, and then insert the battery (still holding the volume up button down) when you hear it connect in Windows and the colored lines begins to move, let go off the volume up button.
8. Now it should connect (maybe Windows install some drivers by now - the MTK65xx Preloader drivers) and it will in the end continue to flash in Spflashtool when the phone is found and connected. (If you get PMT has changed error, you need to change in SP Flash Tool from "Download Only" to "Firmware Upgrade" but you will need a backup that contains ALL files then including the cache and usrdata files, or it will not allow to flash. Also the phone will be formatted first with Firmware Upgrade, and then flashed.)
9. Now wait while it flashes all files, when it is done, a window will popup white a Green circle. Now you can disconnect the cable, close Splflashtool and reboot the phone. The phone should now boot up with the new ROM.
10. A good thing can be to do a full factory reset after your booted or do it in CWM, to clear all caches. But not necessary.
To enter Recovery or Download mode - turn phone completly off then
Download mode = vol up + pwr (hold both down for several seconds)
Recovery = vol down + pwr (hold both down for several seconds)

Hey sorry, I changed my text now. The ROOT part is not only for MTK phones, also other devices. Here is alephzains list of supported devices: http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/framaroot/framaroot-supported-devices-t2722980
You also may try it on others, the worst there can happen is that it just says root failed, and not rooting the device. But then you at least have tried.

In Spflash tool load the scatter file from the backup or ROM directory where you also have all files including the modded EBR files, when loaded it will show all the content to flash, every line has a checkmark in front, uncheck everything but the EBR1 and EBR2. And then flash as I write in the guide. That way it will only flash the EBR1 and 2 to the phone.
Hope i can get this right

So you did install all the drivers I write about in my guide, and rebooted? Normally Spflash tool should recognize the phone after that. (and set the USB debugging mode to on?)
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Hi!
For the last few days I was trying to find the right ROM for me. So I had to learn about MTK Tools and SP Flash tool and I even succeeded with loading different ROMs. What I did not succeed is to restore the original backup made with MTK tools. I followed the tutorial from the first post, the flashing operation ended OK but my smartphone (THL w200s) just wouldn't start. As a matter of fact it starts the beginning but after it passes the animated log it stops. I did not flash the CWM recovery on my device before creating the backup as I wanted to save a snapshot of the original ROM as it was from the factory. More than this, I installed a fresh ROM (I guess it was exactly the same with the default one), everything was OK, I rooted and made my settings (configure emails, etc.) and I made a backup with MTK tools. I had the same issue: I restored the backup with SP Flash Tools, flashing was OK but after that the phone would not start.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi
This is a guide to ROOT, backup and flash your MTK65xx or Other device (Supported devices: http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/framaroot/framaroot-supported-devices-t2722980 all credits to alephzain) written by s7yler.
More guides & reviews on my Youtubechannel http://www.Youtube.com/s7yler
(Tools used are Framaroot, MTKDroidtools/CWM and SpflashTool)
I will try to write this guide in step by step, so everyone can understand it. This is for PC and will work with Windows 7.
-> All is done by your own risk! this is just a guide to help people with the tools and process. <-
How to ROOT the phone first
1. Get the latest Framaroot apk here http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/framaroot/root-framaroot-one-click-apk-to-root-t2130276
2. Download it and install it on the phone, open the Framaroot app on the phone.
3. Let it be on Install SuperSU, and try the last method, if that dont work, then try one of the 2 others.
4. Then it should say success root, and now reboot the phone.
5. After reboot the phone should be ROOTED, download root checker from the Play store and verify that your rooted.
How to make a simple backup (not completly 1:1) of your stock ROM / MTK phone
1. You have you brand new MTK phone.
2. What I do first is to install all possible drivers. So you go to your PC and install these apps/drivers:
Snappea - http://www.snappea.com/windows
Pdanet drivers - http://pdanet.co/a/ (When it ask what device you have in the install process, just say "Other")
Mediatek Preloader USB VCOM Drivers - (Install file) http://www.mediafire.com/download/cypm22rgs2k83ji/MT6577+USB+VCOM+drivers.rar and here the raw drivers http://www.magicdriver.com/driver4214-ver_1.1123.0.html
3. On your MTK phone you must in "Developer Options" enable "USB debugging mode".
4. Now download MTK Droid Tools here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49597819&postcount=922
5. Start MTK Droid Tools, and connect your phone with the USB cable to the PC. (if Windows install some drivers, then let it install them automatically).
6. Now on the first page of MTK Droid Tools, it should display all infos about the phone when you connect it.
7. If the sqare is Green, then you have root shell and ready, if its not green, press the ROOT button to the right in MTK Droid tools.
8. Click the "IMEI/NVRAM" button and then Backup to backup your IMEI/NVRAM, the backup files will be inside of the MTK Droid Tools folder.
Also you can manually write down your IMEI number just in case it should be lost.
9. Now go to the tap "root, backup, recovery" (in MTK Droid Tools).
10. Click the Backup button, and it will create a complete backup of your ROM. (in the end it will ask, if you want to pack it, just answer no)
11. When it is finished then also click "To prepare blocks for FlashTool", that will convert the backup to be compatible with Spflashtool. (choose the files.md5 inside the backup folder)
12. After the backup is done it will be inside "backup" in the MTK Droid Tools folder. And inside it there will also be a new folder called "!Files_to_FlashTool" Inside there the files for Spflashtool is. So when loading your backup with Spflashtool you must load the scatter file from inside there.
13. Now to install CWM (clockworkmod recovery) In MTK Droidtools, choose "To use boot from phone" and click the "Recovery and Boot" button. It will ask you a lot, just say yes every time, and it will end of sending CWM recovery to the phone and reboot into it on the phone. After you see CWM on the phone you know it is done. You can switch the menu with the volume keys, and the power is the select button.
14. Inside CWM you can also do a complete backup of your phone (remember to have enough space, you can do the backup to the internal storage OR to the SDcard - try "backup" if that fails then choose instead "backup to external sd" or vice versa). I recommed doing that because CWM makes another backup than the one made with MTK Droid Tools. So if you should get problems or loose something, you can always run your CWM backup into your phone and it will be as before.
15. After your done the backup, copy the backup also to a safe place on your PC. Just in case!
16. So now your Rooted, have installed CWM recovery, have a IMEI/NVRAM backup and a backup for Spflash Tools plus CWM backup.
To make a 100% FULL 1:1 (more advanced) ReadBack ROM backup using SP FlashTool please check these guides here, and learn how to:
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f60...artphone-how-read-backup-1656510/#post9415324
or here:
http://pinoyscreencast.net/how-to/g...-smartphones-using-spft-mtk-droid-root-tools/
To flash a backup or ROM with Spflashtool:
Disclaimer: Don't flash another preloader and DSP_BL blocks! It is always dangerous! On some models of phones you will have a brick even if you download these blocks read from phone which you own! Always remove from them marks in SPFT! ALWAYS have a working backup of your original ROM before you flash a new unknown ROM. I take no responsibility for any harm done while attempting this!
1. Go download Spflash tool here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982576
Both version 3 or 5 should be good to use. If your having problems with one of them or they crash, try this newer version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2650125
2. Disconnect your phone if connected with USB to the PC, and turn OFF the phone completely, also take out the battery if possible (but can also work with the battery inside the phone, for phones with builtin battery).
2. When you now again connect the USB cable to the phone with the PC while the phone is still off, Windows should popup and beginn to install the MTK65XX Preloader Drivers, this only happens if you installed the Mediatek Preloader USB VCOM Drivers correct in Windows. After they successfully installed, disconnect the USB cable again.
2. Start Flash_tool.exe to start the program
3. Now hit the "Scatter-loading" button, and go to the backup or ROM, inside the folder "!Flash files Spflashtool" load the scatter.txt file. (ALWAYS only load a ROM that is 100% made for your phone, flashing a wrong ROM may make your phone non-bootable)
4. When the scatter file is loaded, it will show all the content in the Spflashtool window.
5. If you only need for example to flash the EBR files, you can deselect all the others. But remember that it must be same ROM or backup.
6. Hit the "Download" button in Spflashtool. Then there should be some pink lines with colors showing that it loads the files.
7. When it stopps to flash/load, connect your phone with the USB cable, remember the phone must be OFF (and without the battery inside if possible to remove). If nothing happens then maybe it is necessary to press at the same time with connect of a cable the camera or volume buttons. For example, hold the volume up button down, insert the USB cable, and then insert the battery (still holding the volume up button down) when you hear it connect in Windows and the colored lines begins to move, let go off the volume up button.
8. Now it should connect (maybe Windows install some drivers by now - the MTK65xx Preloader drivers) and it will in the end continue to flash in Spflashtool when the phone is found and connected.
9. Now wait while it flashes all files, when it is done, a window will popup white a Green circle. Now you can disconnect the cable, close Splflashtool and reboot the phone. The phone should now boot up with the new ROM.
10. A good thing can be to do a full factory reset after your booted or do it in CWM, to clear all caches. But not necessary.
To enter Recovery or Download mode - turn phone completly off then
Download mode = vol up + pwr (hold both down for several seconds)
Recovery = vol down + pwr (hold both down for several seconds)
ROMs can be found on

I'm receiving an error message "SU inaccessible" after hitting the ROOT icon. The phone is a No.1 S7 MTK6589.
I previously tried using the Frameroot app but it failed as well.
Any ideas what the problem might be and how to solve?
Thanks,
Ruby
UPDATE
I have updated the Original Post with a video now, that show the whole process how to flash and use SP Flash Tool.
As always, everything is done at your own risk. It is just a guide. This video is for education only.
Very Useful Tips
Hy Man Thanks 4 This Useful Tips. Very Impressed.I Like Xda VeryMuch.
Fun accident
Well here's my story.
I was trying to debrand some Huawei Y330-U05 in order to resell them. My first clue was to root the devices and remove all the Entel PCS crap, but I was unable to remove the Boot Splashscreen. So I looked over the net and I could not find a compatible ROM for my model. I downloaded a Y330-U01 ROM from Europe and I tried to flash it figuring that later I'd have to fix the 3G bands. FlashTools did not let me do that and I had the stupid idea to boot the biit.img and recovery.img from the U01 into the U05 with MTKdroidTools. Bricked the phone, and the only way to bring it back was to use the U01 ROM and flash it back. I changed my device from U05 to U01, like I wanted at first but I cant change the 3G bands and I don't have 3G connnection now.
I can't flash back the U05 backup ROMs I did from the phone before I started messing with them because the of the model mismatch (Phone now thinks it is a U01 version). And since there is no stock ROM for the U05 model to download, except for an UPDATE.APP from Movistar Mexico that phone refuses to accept, I'm afraid that if I reverse the whloe process I will end up with a bricked phone and no Stock ROM to bring it back.
Here comes the question. How do I force install a WRONG ROM into my phone? Remember: my Y330-U05 now thinks it is a Y330-U01.
Thanks a lot!

Can the blu studio 5.0c hd be rooted this way? A bit scared to do it because this is my daily driver

i saw your screenshot and yellow box at the bottom clearly indicates that your device has not been rooted properly. adb still exists as secure region. it is said that your device should said to be rooted properly only when your device got adb insecure. However, if your device has locked bootloader, doing so, i.e. entering or making adb insecure may lead your device to dead boot, a stage from which there are only two ways to survive from:- JTAG/RIFF box OR by replacing motherboard!!!!
However, if your bootloader is unlocked and only if your device is dev friendly, following link may help you to get green box at the bottom of MTK Droid Root Tools indicating your device has proper root access.
However, i have successfully solved this error in my panasonic p81 by making adb insecure.
Though, Do this on your own risk....Remember again, making adb insecure may make your device FAIL!!!!
Head over to following link:-

MTK droid tools 253 is not identifying the UNite 2 8GB model. What went wrong?
SOLVED - HAD TO WAIT FOR AROUND A MINUTE FOR THE FIRST TIME.
Problem with 8GB version
When I connect my phone to the computer, the preloader driver is installed and there's the typical connection sound in windows. But just after that it gets disconnected in like 1-2 secs. I am unable to use MTK Flash Tool because of it.
I have a 8GB rom version of unite 2. Anybody else having the same problem?? Any solutions???
PS: My phone is perfectly getting detected by adb in developer mode.
Rooted succesfully with u r method
Followed u r all step for Readback and Rooting Got success thanks for u r hard work
